Income Os Farmers Slightly Increased First Increase On Farms Since 1951 WASHINGTON (UP)—The Agriculture Department said today net farm income for this year is up slightly from 1955 in the first increase since 1951. It forecast another gain for 1957. The department discussed the farm income outlook in generalized terms in its publication, “The Agricultural Outlook Digest.” Specific figures and forecasts for 1957 will be released later in the year. It said the keys to farm income for next year are strong demand from consumers, increasing shipments of farm products aboard, the soil bank, and reduced hog marketings. It made these forecasts: income in 1957 will continue its upward climb as a result of high production and .employment. This means more consumer dollars for agricultural products. Prospects are good for a strong foreign market, especially with the government continuing to help finance exports under the trade development and assistance act.' Around 40 to 45 million acres probably will go into the soil bank next year—at least 20 million in the acreage reserve from wheat, cotton, other basic crops, and the remainder in the conservation reserve. This would reduce total crop production in 1957, but won’t affect marketings until the last half of the year. Farmers will have plenty to sell. Farm production this year set a new record and stock' of wheat, cotton, corn, and rice were at new highs when the crop year began. Reduced hog production this fall will cut meat production in 1957, halting a five-year increase. Beef production will stay near the 1956 volume, and output of dairy and —ducts is likely to set new record*. „,._.cment said these prospects — strong demand, increased experts, and a reduction in output —point to the likelihood of a slightly higher price level in 1957 than in 1956. Although farm marketings j may be down a little, higher prices and payments under the soil bank will more than make up the difference. This means gross income should rise a little. Prices paid by farmers, especially for items produced by industry, are likely to continue upward. Trade In a Good Town — Decani
